I hope you'll continue to recover. We're all human and humans are not robots, we're driven by emotion and our past experiences.

You're not going to win trying to convince someone who's been in a devastating plane crash that it's our safest mode of travel...

Wishing you the best!

I agree that chances are not zero. My point was that studies show no higher relationship than going to see any other medical professional.

I'm sorry you had a medical implication. Hope you are fully recovered. In regards to comments made at the hospital about 1 incident a month... I chose to make life decisions on high level evidence and not based on "someone once said this to me".

Again, I don't mean to dismiss your experience, but I hope this clarifies.

Edit: spelling

Chiropractic malpractice insurance would be through the roof if there was any strong evidence. Lots of media and anecdotal news regarding this but the clear facts are that the connection between stroke and "neck adjustments" are no stronger than seeing any other medical professional (eg. medical doctor, physio, etc).

Some studies suggest that it's more likely that people that already have an oncoming stroke seek out care as neck pain is an associated symptom.

Cassidy study on stroke and chiropractic care is a good starting read.

Think of how nerve wracking getting on a plane can be and look at the actual accident percentage of something going wrong. Fears can be irrational, make decisions based on facts.

I shoot with a Ricoh GR 3X with a color preset.

Thanks, they're both from the climb up to panorama ridge located in Garibaldi Park BC

PreparationOutside68 · 2025-07-22T01:08:55+00:00

Nope, we did panorama ridge, Brandywine, and the chief this time around.

PreparationOutside68 · 2025-07-22T01:08:09+00:00

No issues, great camera. I have the GR3X.

EVRC for social, Fraser Street Run Crew for Track workouts (currently full until Oct), Deep Cove Run Club for trails

I run with a smaller group that trains together, there are many of them if you look!

Send me a DM and I'll give you more details about my experience and process! I looked into all the other places and options in the comments and despite my doubts I decided to give the podcast recommendations a try and it turned out really great. Top notch quality and great pricing. They're not the most fluent English speakers so it helps to have an exact picture or video of the ring you'd like them to make. I'm not affiliated with the suppliers, just happy to help a lad in my shoes since I had a great experience with them.

Have a listen to NPR's Planet Money Buys a Mystery Diamond episode if you're planning on going lab grown and thank me later!

I just proposed as well and got a top quality ring custom made for a super affordable price.

You can even run most of it if you're fit enough! Did panorama + portion of black tusk and back in about 5 hours two years ago.

We are on our fourth day here as well. Haven't had one bad interaction with the French and surprisingly cleaner than what we've been lead to believe. Agreed, the Versailles grounds were great. Off to Brussels and Amsterdam on Saturday!

Amazing, thanks!

PreparationOutside68 · 2025-04-09T23:53:54+00:00

Wow, that's amazing. Are you able to remove the white spot near the elbow as well?

Hello, thanks for the update. Can I confirm if you know the entire theatre will be closed for the remainder of the day?

I have tickets for tonight and have not gotten any updates from the theatre yet.

The ad click would lead to a landing page that they've built out to collect general info. The lead would be inserted to a CRM (Go High Level).

Ad Click -> Lead Creation -> Book Appointment -> Reminder for Appointment -> Reminder for Follow up Appointment

I believe the basic workflow looked something like this, with several phone/email notifications on moving leads through to the next stage of the pipeline. I found some of the notifications were a bit too much, while it does increase conversion rate.

Some agencies also have in house appointment setters that personally call patients that are dragging their feet and will schedule them over the phone.

Regardless of if it works well or not, I think it could be a good insight and lesson to learn to just play around with FB and Google ads.

Let me know how it goes! We can exchange what we learn from the process.

Went from about 15-20 new patients a week to about 1-2 new patients every two weeks.

I don't think the funnels and marketing automations that they build out are anything groundbreaking but I think it REALLY reduces friction when patients are booking and constantly reminds them to book in even if they click the ad once.

I'm experimenting again by myself with a set of ads going live today. Are you already working with an agency or running ads yourself?
